With multiple items on the same broad object, codes could be summed or averaged to give an indication of each respondent’s overall positive negative orientation towards that object.

In this study, we present a metric of consensus for Likert-type scales. The statistic provides the level agreement any given number response options as percentage among respondents. With aim, use geometric framework that allows us to analytically derive positional indicator. is obtained relative weight distance from point containing proportions observations fall in each category centre regular ...
